all they hear from washington is about tax hikes and spending cuts. how come nobody is talking about how to grow the economy? >> well, first of all, i think the c.e.o.s of the large corporations are very tuned into this debate. many of them are actually participating directly in the debate in washington. and they're entirely aware of all of the stuff we're talking about right now, and the degree to which an agreement, which i believe we'll see, would clear the air and would free -- would liberate a lot of investment and hiring and expansion. and as far as business in general is concerned, once this is out of the way, all of that talk about tax increases, spending cuts, dysfunction, gridlock, that will disappear. so i think you'll see a better 2013 than 2012. that's not too hard because 2012 has been a very slow year, even before the fourth quarter and into hesitation. i think the outlook beyond this is really pretty good. >> susie: we're going to have to leave it there and that very upbeat note. thank you e very much, roger. we've been speaking with r

jonathan capehart is an opinion writing for "the washington post." john, we heard the accusations the president delayed the administration's response, manipulating the remarks offered by susan rice. we had the fox news report that the cia had ordered the rescue team to stand down. reports about officials in washington somehow dragging their feet on the night of the attack. this report found none of those to be true. >> uh-huh. no. and guess what else the report doesn't mention? susan rice. doesn't mention her at all. because as we've talked about for weeks, as we've known for weeks, what was going on in benghazi had nothing to do with susan rice. it had everything to do with security failures on the part of the state department, cia, lapses of leadership as the report points out. and so if anyone thinks that now senators john mccain and lindsey graham are going to mards out there and say susan rice we're sorry. that's not going to happen. this fight was not about susan rice. this was about old vendettas on senator mccain's part against the president.
